My Aunt Terry was such an amazing person, good hearted, loving, funny. Never had a bad thing to say about anyone. I never realized how great she was until I reflected back on her life some years back to remember what a caring and giving person she was. I'm just glad I had the opportunity to let her know how great she was. Just wish I had more time with her knowing what I know now to make up for the time I didn't know then. I will miss her very much but she will be in my heart every day! Best Aunt Ever, Love You Always, Dennis
My mother was living with us after recently breaking her hip, We left her alone to see Ian roller skate in a Christmas show, We returned home to find a batch of her famous biscotti. We were amazed she was able to remember the recipe, navigate an unfamiliar kitchen and physically reach the needed ingredients. My mother was truly a determined and amazing woman! How I miss her!

I am so very sorry for the loss of your Mom. She and your father were great neighbors to Andy and me. She was the best baker and always shared her biscotti's. You have my deepest sympathy.
